Mustard

Matthew 13:
31Another parable he put before them, saying, "The kingdom of heaven is like a grain of mustard seed which a man took and sowed in his field;  32it is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is the greatest of shrubs and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come and make nests in its branches."  33He told them another parable. "The kingdom of heaven is like leaven which a woman took and hid in three measures of flour, till it was all leavened."  34All this Jesus said to the crowds in parables; indeed he said nothing to them without a parable.  35This was to fulfil what was spoken by the prophet: "I will open my mouth in parables, I will utter what has been hidden since the foundation of the world."

Pearl

Matthew 13:
44"The kingdom of heaven is like treasure hidden in a field, which a man found and covered up; then in his joy he goes and sells all that he has and buys that field.  45"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a merchant in search of fine pearls,  46who, on finding one pearl of great value, went and sold all that he had and bought it.  47"Again, the kingdom of heaven is like a net which was thrown into the sea and gathered fish of every kind;  48when it was full, men drew it ashore and sat down and sorted the good into vessels but threw away the bad.  49So it will be at the close of the age. The angels will come out and separate the evil from the righteous,  50and throw them into the furnace of fire; there men will weep and gnash their teeth.  51"Have you understood all this?" They said to him, "Yes."  52And he said to them, "Therefore every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old."

Martha

John 11:
19and many of the Jews had come to Martha and Mary to console them concerning their brother. 20When Martha heard that Jesus was coming, she went and met him, while Mary sat in the house. 21Martha said to Jesus, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died.  22And even now I know that whatever you ask from God, God will give you."  23Jesus said to her, "Your brother will rise again."  24Martha said to him, "I know that he will rise again in the resurrection at the last day."  25Jesus said to her, "I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live,  26and whoever lives and believes in me shall never die. Do you believe this?"  27She said to him, "Yes, Lord; I believe that you are the Christ, the Son of God, he who is coming into the world."

Seeds

Matthew 13:
18"Hear then the parable of the sower.  19When any one hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what is sown in his heart; this is what was sown along the path.  20As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy;  21yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away.  22As for what was sown among thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the delight in riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.  23As for what was sown on good soil, this is he who hears the word and understands it; he indeed bears fruit, and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty."

Blessed

Matthew 13:
10Then the disciples came and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in parables?"  11And he answered them, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.  12For to him who has will more be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.  13This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 14With them indeed is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which says: `You shall indeed hear but never understand, and you shall indeed see but never perceive. 15For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.' 16But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear.  17Truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

See

Matthew 13:
16But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear.  17Truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.

Thunder

Matthew 20:
20Then the mother of the sons of Zeb'edee came up to him, with her sons, and kneeling before him she asked him for something.  21And he said to her, "What do you want?" She said to him, "Command that these two sons of mine may sit, one at your right hand and one at your left, in your kingdom."  22But Jesus answered, "You do not know what you are asking. Are you able to drink the cup that I am to drink?" They said to him, "We are able."  23He said to them, "You will drink my cup, but to sit at my right hand and at my left is not mine to grant, but it is for those for whom it has been prepared by my Father."  24And when the ten heard it, they were indignant at the two brothers.  25But Jesus called them to him and said, "You know that the rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their great men exercise authority over them.  26It shall not be so among you; but whoever would be great among you must be your servant,  27and whoever would be first among you must be your slave;  28even as the Son of man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many."

Jonah

Matthew 12:
38Then some of the scribes and Pharisees said to him, "Teacher, we wish to see a sign from you." 39But he answered them, "An evil and adulterous generation seeks for a sign; but no sign shall be given to it except the sign of the prophet Jonah.  40For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so will the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.  41The men of Nin'eveh will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for they repented at the preaching of Jonah, and behold, something greater than Jonah is here.  42The queen of the South will arise at the judgment with this generation and condemn it; for she came from the ends of the earth to hear the wisdom of Solomon, and behold, something greater than Solomon is here.

Magdelene

John 20:
1Now on the first day of the week Mary Mag'dalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark, and saw that the stone had been taken away from the tomb.  2So she ran, and went to Simon Peter and the other disciple, the one whom Jesus loved, and said to them, "They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we do not know where they have laid him."  11But Mary stood weeping outside the tomb, and as she wept she stooped to look into the tomb;  12and she saw two angels in white, sitting where the body of Jesus had lain, one at the head and one at the feet.  13They said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping?" She said to them, "Because they have taken away my Lord, and I do not know where they have laid him."  14Saying this, she turned round and saw Jesus standing, but she did not know that it was Jesus.  15Jesus said to her, "Woman, why are you weeping? Whom do you seek?" Supposing him to be the gardener, she said to him, "Sir, if you have carried him away, tell me where you have laid him, and I will take him away."  16Jesus said to her, "Mary." She turned and said to him in Hebrew, "Rab-bo'ni!" (which means Teacher).  17Jesus said to her, "Do not hold me, for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren and say to them, I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God."  18Mary Mag'dalene went and said to the disciples, "I have seen the Lord"; and she told them that he had said these things to her.

Sent

Luke 9:
1And he called the twelve together and gave them power and authority over all demons and to cure diseases,  2and he sent them out to preach the kingdom of God and to heal.  3And he said to them, "Take nothing for your journey, no staff, nor bag, nor bread, nor money; and do not have two tunics.  4And whatever house you enter, stay there, and from there depart.  5And wherever they do not receive you, when you leave that town shake off the dust from your feet as a testimony against them."  6And they departed and went through the villages, preaching the gospel and healing everywhere.

Yoke

Matthew 11:
28Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.  29Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

Babes

Matthew 11:
25At that time Jesus declared, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes;  26yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.  27All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.

Sodom

Matthew 11:
20Then he began to upbraid the cities where most of his mighty works had been done, because they did not repent.  21"Woe to you, Chora'zin! woe to you, Beth-sa'ida! for if the mighty works done in you had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes. 22But I tell you, it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for Tyre and Sidon than for you. 23And you, Caper'na-um, will you be exalted to heaven? You shall be brought down to Hades. For if the mighty works done in you had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day. 24But I tell you that it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom than for you."

Cup

Matthew 10:
1034"Do not think that I have come to bring peace on earth; I have not come to bring peace, but a sword.  35For I have come to set a man against his father, and a daughter against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law;  36and a man's foes will be those of his own household. 37He who loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; and he who loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me;  38and he who does not take his cross and follow me is not worthy of me.  39He who finds his life will lose it, and he who loses his life for my sake will find it. 40"He who receives you receives me, and he who receives me receives him who sent me.  41He who receives a prophet because he is a prophet shall receive a prophet's reward, and he who receives a righteous man because he is a righteous man shall receive a righteous man's reward.  42And whoever gives to one of these little ones even a cup of cold water because he is a disciple, truly, I say to you, he shall not lose his reward."111And when Jesus had finished instructing his twelve disciples, he went on from there to teach and preach in their cities.

Sower

Matthew 13:
1That same day Jesus went out of the house and sat beside the sea.  2And great crowds gathered about him, so that he got into a boat and sat there; and the whole crowd stood on the beach.  3And he told them many things in parables, saying: "A sower went out to sow.  4And as he sowed, some seeds fell along the path, and the birds came and devoured them.  5Other seeds fell on rocky ground, where they had not much soil, and immediately they sprang up, since they had no depth of soil,  6but when the sun rose they were scorched; and since they had no root they withered away. 7Other seeds fell upon thorns, and the thorns grew up and choked them.  8Other seeds fell on good soil and brought forth grain, some a hundredfold, some sixty, some thirty.  9He who has ears, let him hear."  10Then the disciples came and said to him, "Why do you speak to them in parables?" 11And he answered them, "To you it has been given to know the secrets of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given.  12For to him who has will more be given, and he will have abundance; but from him who has not, even what he has will be taken away.  13This is why I speak to them in parables, because seeing they do not see, and hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand.  14With them indeed is fulfilled the prophecy of Isaiah which says: `You shall indeed hear but never understand, and you shall indeed see but never perceive. 15For this people's heart has grown dull, and their ears are heavy of hearing, and their eyes they have closed, lest they should perceive with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their heart, and turn for me to heal them.' 16But blessed are your eyes, for they see, and your ears, for they hear. 17Truly, I say to you, many prophets and righteous men longed to see what you see, and did not see it, and to hear what you hear, and did not hear it.  18"Hear then the parable of the sower. 19When any one hears the word of the kingdom and does not understand it, the evil one comes and snatches away what is sown in his heart; this is what was sown along the path.  20As for what was sown on rocky ground, this is he who hears the word and immediately receives it with joy; 21yet he has no root in himself, but endures for a while, and when tribulation or persecution arises on account of the word, immediately he falls away.  22As for what was sown among thorns, this is he who hears the word, but the cares of the world and the delight in riches choke the word, and it proves unfruitful.  23As for what was sown on good soil, this is he who hears the word and understands it; he indeed bears fruit, and yields, in one case a hundredfold, in another sixty, and in another thirty."

Shine

Matthew 5:
13"You are the salt of the earth; but if salt has lost its taste, how shall its saltness be restored? It is no longer good for anything except to be thrown out and trodden under foot by men.  14"You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hid.  15Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.  16Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.  17"Think not that I have come to abolish the law and the prophets; I have come not to abolish them but to fulfil them.  18For truly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, not an iota, not a dot, will pass from the law until all is accomplished.  19Whoever then relaxes one of the least of these commandments and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but he who does them and teaches them shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven.

Doves

Matthew 10:
16"Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves.  17Beware of men; for they will deliver you up to councils, and flog you in their synagogues, 18and you will be dragged before governors and kings for my sake, to bear testimony before them and the Gentiles.  19When they deliver you up, do not be anxious how you are to speak or what you are to say; for what you are to say will be given to you in that hour;  20for it is not you who speak, but the Spirit of your Father speaking through you.  21Brother will deliver up brother to death, and the father his child, and children will rise against parents and have them put to death;  22and you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But he who endures to the end will be saved.  23When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next; for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel, before the Son of man comes.

Preach

Matthew 10:
7And preach as you go, saying, `The kingdom of heaven is at hand.'  8Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse lepers, cast out demons. You received without paying, give without pay.  9Take no gold, nor silver, nor copper in your belts,  10no bag for your journey, nor two tunics, nor sandals, nor a staff; for the laborer deserves his food.  11And whatever town or village you enter, find out who is worthy in it, and stay with him until you depart.  12As you enter the house, salute it.  13And if the house is worthy, let your peace come upon it; but if it is not worthy, let your peace return to you.  14And if any one will not receive you or listen to your words, shake off the dust from your feet as you leave that house or town.  15Truly, I say to you, it shall be more tolerable on the day of judgment for the land of Sodom and Gomor'rah than for that town.

Lost

Matthew 10:
1And he called to him his twelve disciples and gave them authority over unclean spirits, to cast them out, and to heal every disease and every infirmity.  2The names of the twelve apostles are these: first, Simon, who is called Peter, and Andrew his brother; James the son of Zeb'edee, and John his brother;  3Philip and Bartholomew; Thomas and Matthew the tax collector; James the son of Alphaeus, and Thaddaeus;  4Simon the Cananaean, and Judas Iscariot, who betrayed him. 5These twelve Jesus sent out, charging them, "Go nowhere among the Gentiles, and enter no town of the Samaritans,  6but go rather to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.  7And preach as you go, saying, `The kingdom of heaven is at hand.'

Harvest

Matthew 9:
32As they were going away, behold, a dumb demoniac was brought to him.  33And when the demon had been cast out, the dumb man spoke; and the crowds marveled, saying, "Never was anything like this seen in Israel."  34But the Pharisees said, "He casts out demons by the prince of demons." 35And Jesus went about all the cities and villages, teaching in their synagogues and preaching the gospel of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every infirmity.  36When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.  37Then he said to his disciples, "The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few;  38pray therefore the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest."

Repay

Matthew 16:
Then Jesus told his disciples, "If any man would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me.  25For whoever would save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.  26For what will it profit a man, if he gains the whole world and forfeits his life? Or what shall a man give in return for his life?  27For the Son of man is to come with his angels in the glory of his Father, and then he will repay every man for what he has done.

Rest

Matthew 11:
25At that time Jesus declared, "I thank thee, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that thou hast hidden these things from the wise and understanding and revealed them to babes;  26yea, Father, for such was thy gracious will.  27All things have been delivered to me by my Father; and no one knows the Son except the Father, and no one knows the Father except the Son and any one to whom the Son chooses to reveal him.  28Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me; for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls.  30For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."

New wine

Matthew 9:
14Then the disciples of John came to him, saying, "Why do we and the Pharisees fast, but your disciples do not fast?"  15And Jesus said to them, "Can the wedding guests mourn as long as the bridegroom is with them? The days will come, when the bridegroom is taken away from them, and then they will fast.  16And no one puts a piece of unshrunk cloth on an old garment, for the patch tears away from the garment, and a worse tear is made.  17Neither is new wine put into old wineskins; if it is, the skins burst, and the wine is spilled, and the skins are destroyed; but new wine is put into fresh wineskins, and so both are preserved."

Sinners

Matthew 9:
9As Jesus passed on from there, he saw a man called Matthew sitting at the tax office; and he said to him, "Follow me." And he rose and followed him.  10And as he sat at table in the house, behold, many tax collectors and sinners came and sat down with Jesus and his disciples.  11And when the Pharisees saw this, they said to his disciples, "Why does your teacher eat with tax collectors and sinners?"  12But when he heard it, he said, "Those who are well have no need of a physician, but those who are sick.  13Go and learn what this means, `I desire mercy, and not sacrifice.' For I came not to call the righteous, but sinners."

Paralytic

Matthew 9:
1And getting into a boat he crossed over and came to his own city.  2And behold, they brought to him a paralytic, lying on his bed; and when Jesus saw their faith he said to the paralytic, "Take heart, my son; your sins are forgiven."  3And behold, some of the scribes said to themselves, "This man is blaspheming."  4But Jesus, knowing their thoughts, said, "Why do you think evil in your hearts?  5For which is easier, to say, `Your sins are forgiven,' or to say, `Rise and walk'?  6But that you may know that the Son of man has authority on earth to forgive sins" -- he then said to the paralytic -- "Rise, take up your bed and go home."  7And he rose and went home.  8When the crowds saw it, they were afraid, and they glorified God, who had given such authority to men.

Demoniacs

Matthew 8:
28And when he came to the other side, to the country of the Gadarenes, two demoniacs met him, coming out of the tombs, so fierce that no one could pass that way.  29And behold, they cried out, "What have you to do with us, O Son of God? Have you come here to torment us before the time?" 30Now a herd of many swine was feeding at some distance from them.  31And the demons begged him, "If you cast us out, send us away into the herd of swine."  32And he said to them, "Go." So they came out and went into the swine; and behold, the whole herd rushed down the steep bank into the sea, and perished in the waters.  33The herdsmen fled, and going into the city they told everything, and what had happened to the demoniacs.  34And behold, all the city came out to meet Jesus; and when they saw him, they begged him to leave their neighborhood.

Least

Matthew 25:
31"When the Son of man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, then he will sit on his glorious throne.  32Before him will be gathered all the nations, and he will separate them one from another as a shepherd separates the sheep from the goats,  33and he will place the sheep at his right hand, but the goats at the left.  34Then the King will say to those at his right hand, `Come, O blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world;  35for I was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you gave me drink, I was a stranger and you welcomed me,  36I was naked and you clothed me, I was sick and you visited me, I was in prison and you came to me.'  37Then the righteous will answer him, `Lord, when did we see thee hungry and feed thee, or thirsty and give thee drink?  38And when did we see thee a stranger and welcome thee, or naked and clothe thee?  39And when did we see thee sick or in prison and visit thee?'  40And the King will answer them, `Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me.'  41Then he will say to those at his left hand, `Depart from me, you cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels;  42for I was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink,  43I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.'  44Then they also will answer, `Lord, when did we see thee hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to thee?'  45Then he will answer them, `Truly, I say to you, as you did it not to one of the least of these, you did it not to me.'  46And they will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life."
